For people who learned win32, did you at first feel lost ? If so does that lost feeling eventually go away? (YES, I FEEL VERY LOST)

Just memorize this:

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE, char*, int) {
... message loop crap ...
}

Then you''ll be fine.

It sort of goes away, and is replaced a little with the general feeling of being dirty and gross.

Yes, the confusion goes away.
The wrose thing about learning win32 is that you are really learning many things at once.

Even driven programming (assuming you are coming from Console programming)
win32 API
GUI programming. (same assumption)
More stuff I can''t think of.
